Great Case
Small enough to fit in the middle pocket of my jerseys, tough enough to survive repeated dropping, durable in wet conditions, and keeps my mobile, credit card, and ID dry.

Great rainproof essentials case. Highly recommend
Great weather resistant case for essentials.
Won't fit many smart phones, but does fit snuggly inside a pocket without poking out. I'm using mine for my Covid-19 mask, disposable gloves, mini sanitary hand gel, pocket pack of sanitary wipes and tissues. Perfect for my cafe stop mid-ride without having to faff around in all my pockets finding all the bits and pieces I need.
Love the purple colour, but then purple is my favourite colour so was always going to be a winner with me!

Great cycling wallet
Keeps my phone dry from rain, snow, or sweat. It’s large enough to hold my iPhone XS, cash, id, and some spare change if needed. No more zip lock baggies for me.

Great but toi tight
Excellent for protecting your iPhone, however if you have an iPhone 12 with cover you need the larger version as the standard version is just a bit too small.

The perfect jersey case!
The case is perfect! It is very well constructed and fits my iPhone mini easily along with my wallet and room to spare. The case size is just right for a jersey pocket. What’s that? You don’t have an iPhone mini? You spent thousands of dollars shaving grams from your bicycle and then stuffed a boat anchor for a phone in your pocket? Truly dedicated cyclists should have very small phones.

A good case for iphone11pro
A good phone case for wet weather. I can comfortably fit my iphone11pro (with leather case) inside and still have room for other things.

Essential for everyday rides and bikepacking.
Great accessory if you want to keep your things dry. It fits my keys, credit cards, a small bike tool and, when I travel, my passport.

Looks great. Too small on the inside for a phone.
It needs a little more room inside. I have an regular size iPhone 8, and I have to work to get it zipped up. Too tight.

Very good case
Ideal size for iPhone 14 Pro, plus one or two cards, notes or a few coins. Impregnable material and high-quality zipper.

Nice case, practical and good value for money
I finally purchased this nice and handy case and can stop using those ugly plastic bags. Love this product as it looks really nice, it is lightweight and the zipper is easy to handle. Based on my experience so far, the case is indeed waterproof, the inner part is just perfect to safely accomodate my iPhone 8, ID card and some cash in the separated sections. Perfect size for my usual goods and perfectly fits in the cycling jersey pocket, too. Value for a reasonable price.

Rainproof Essentials Case (Regular Size)
My previous Rapha Essentials case (Black Leather) got destroyed in a bike crash I had in January. I had that case for probably over 6-7 years, and loved it. This new Rainproof Essentials Case is slightly larger, which I like, yet it still fits completely inside a jersey pocket. I carry a spare tube, CO2 cartridge and inflator, a tire iron, tweezers, tire boot, a Grease Monkey degreaser wipe, a credit card and sometimes a few cash bills. Works perfectly!

I like it but...
I like the case, it looks really cool but I might not use it for cycling - it's a little bit too big for me, I should have gone with the smaller size. I was a little bit disappointed by the divider to keep cards away from the phone as it's just one big open pocket and I was hoping for a actual card divider to keep them in place.

A relief
lucky enough not to have to take a rucksack on my commute so I just remove my card from my wallet & place it in my jacket/jersey pocket along with my phone. More than once though I forgot to zip up the pocket & my phone has fallen out, the last straw was when this happened I also dropped my card which I subsequently lost. This has solved the problem. All my essentials are stored safely in this case with ample space & not being too bulky either.

Good size and material.
I really like the size and the material. I can fit my iPhone7 nicely as well as my ID, race licence and cash notes for when i ride out to areas where business is only done in cash and still have room for keys and gel. Havent used it in full wet ride but so far its kept my phone dry from sweat and light shower. Also like the subdued branding. My only gripe is the zipper - I think it can do with a better one as its sometimes hard to open/shut.

Deep yellow color is gorgeous
Love the color of this essentials case. I use it to carry my cards (debit/ID) as well as my phone and a housekey. My phone (google pixel 3) just barely fits in it but it works fine. My only real bummer so far is the zipper pocket is actually a little too small to fit a debit card! I kind of have to slide the card in there at an angle to get in and zip. I wish it had just a few more mm of a pocket to make that an easier transition.

Good product. Price a bit high.
I purchased the smaller of the 2 sizes. I really like them. I use one for my phone and then another for my repair kit on the road. It fits everything nicely and keeps it all from clumping at the bottom of my jersey pocket. I haven't tested them in rain yet but I don't really ride in rain if I can help it. I bought them to keep sweat away from my phone. Would have been 5 stars if the price was a little more reasonable.

Good little case
Bought this product to replace the ubiquitous plastic zip lock bag for my phone after it sadly died! It fits the phone (IPhone 8 with case), a handful of loose change, some credit cards and money with a bit of room to spare. I haven't tested it out in rain yet, but it seems as if it will do the job. Would recommend this case.
Being plain black is a bit boring, but this doesn't affect the performance of the case!

Does not fit in medium women’s jersey pocket
Too large for medium women’s jersey pocket. Quite bulky and takes up too much room.

Good but not perfect
I have been using the old case without the waterproof body for a couple of years. This case is better with the new feature but the zipper gets a minus. The zipper aint as smooth as the old non-water-repellent one. The ultramarine colour looks much brighter on the website irl the colour is just plain blue. Disappointing!
Summary: a good case for a "small" smartphone, money and keys. Get the black one!

Perfect case for your non-bike essentials.
I fit my keys, an iPhone 8 with an otter box case, ID and cash in this pack for every ride. Keeps everything together and dry. Much easier than storing items in a saddle bag or bottle keg.
I sweat a lot in my jerseys and had issues with my phone getting pretty wet. Now keeping the essentials on my person rather than the bike makes everything a little easier. And it’s Rapha so you feel that much cooler.

Good Product
I had few different case, including Raphas EF education and the 500. But this case is truly what needed for me, I use this case for my cell phone and money when I'm on a ride, we had a hot weather most of the year and other cases would get socked in sweat - making this case the best option for me, also this model feel slightly bigger and more loose, so possible to stuff more essentials inside .

Really well made
I bought a large one for my phone/keys/cards, and shortly after it turned up I decided to buy a small one to move my repair kit from the saddle bag to my jersey pocket. These are really well made - I can't fault their construction at all. The large one holds a Galaxy S8+, 3 cards and 2 keys, and there's plenty of extra room to store more. The small one holds a tube, 2 tyre levers, 10 cables ties, a chain link, a disk-brake separator (for when transporting a disc bike with the wheel removed to stop the pads closing up), a pair of nitrile gloves and a Topeak Mini 20 Pro multitool... and there's still room.
Essentially, they're great cases that are water resistant and comfortable in your pocket, and can store plenty of stuff in without bursting the zips. Your jersey will absolutely start sagging before the cases break - and that's something I'm now having to deal with when planning a long ride.
